Interview with death metal band from Poland - GODSLUT.
Answered Krzysiek Śniadecki (guitars, vocals), thank you!
Recenze/review - GODSLUT - The Art Of Deconstruction (2026):
Ave GODSLUT! Greetings to the Polish underground. I hope everything’s going well over there. It should be you’ve released the second fantastic full-length album of your career this year. I have to admit, it literally pinned me to the wall. It’s dark, energetic, and cuts like a sharp knife. It’s very clear that you’ve done a great job and brought a lot of talent to the table. How do you view the new album in relation to your previous release? Where did you want to take things, and how do you think the two albums differ?
What's up our Czech besties! Super glad you enjoyed the first album. The second one though – you'll either love – or hate ;)
It definitely is more mature and developed, also maybe a bit experimental, with a visible contrast to the first one, so all the listeners definitely should keep it on their radar!
“The Art of Deconstruction” embodies all the attributes of good death metal. For me personally, it’s an album I love coming back to. How did it come together? How does GODSLUT compose new material?
Honestly, it's mostly me (Krzysiek) putting my emotions and guitar workshop to do the work for me. I want the compositions to be as honest as possible, and somewhat possible to relate or connect to them.
I looked it up Krzysiek Śniadecki is credited with the recording, and Paweł Grabowski with the mastering. I have to say, the sound is absolutely killer. It keeps making me turn up the volume on my hi-fi system. These two gentlemen created a sound for you that’s brutal, raw, yet dark and primal. What was it like working with them, and why did you choose them specifically? Which studio did you record in, and how did everything go?
You currently are talking with Krzysiek in person himself ;)
So: working with me – horrible; working with Janos – absolutely awesome and professional ;D
Jokes aside, we communicate really well and both know what sound fits the material, and what's the most important aspect – we simply enjoy working together.
Studio-wise there were two:
- Say10 Industries: recording & preproduction
- JNS Studio: Mixing & Mastering
The CD is an integral part of the release and a sort of bonus for fans today. You released it on Selfmadegod Records, and it features a macabre cover designed by Michał “Xaay” Loranc. How did you choose the theme, and how does it relate to the music on the new album?
The gun could really symbolise the definition of deconstruction itself. The songs are either about being on your edge and morphing into insanity, also in different sets of situations; or about different circumstances that lead us there; so yeah, it basically fits the theme :)
And the story of the whole emblem thing is much shorter – Xaay had drawn it once on our limited t-shirt design and it just stood with us since then :)
I’ve been wandering through the underground scene for over thirty years now, and when it comes to music, I go to Poland because I know I can count on it. I think we have similar temperaments and tastes when it comes to metal. I really like your bands and follow your scene closely. Maybe I even envy you a little we only have a few death metal bands back home that are worth checking out. How do you explain the fact that death metal is doing so well in your country in particular? How do you view your scene, the fans, and the labels?
Man, to be honest, no idea :D
Partially that's because we've got some international stars that everybody looks up to, such as Decapitated, Behemoth or Vader, but I can't really think of any other reasons. We probably just enjoy that genre the most.
You play old school influenced death metal. These days, a band can’t really avoid comparisons, but I’d be interested to know how the idea to form GODSLUT actually came about, who your role models were and are, and where you want to take your band next. Are you tempted by big international festivals, for example, and would you be willing to go on tour with a more famous band?
Our form isn't really a still topic, because we are constantly developing, but since always we've been highly inspired by earlier mentioned Decapitated, we absolutely love those guys.
Speaking of festivals, or tours with more famous bands – ABSOLUTE YES. We (or at least me personally) don't really give a damn about being the biggest „star“ of the event. We just wanna have fun and see as many people as possible enjoy our work together with ourselves!
When I started my website ten years ago, my vision was to support bands that I felt weren’t getting enough attention to let the world know about them. I think I’m doing pretty well at it, at least judging by the feedback. How do you approach promotion? Do you leave it to the label, or do you send CDs out yourselves for reviews? For example, I buy albums that I really enjoy. How about you? Are you also fans who like to support your peers often? Do you go to concerts? Do you party?
My friend, even though I'm 19 at the moment, I feel quite a lot of social similarities between us :D
We absolutely love going to gigs, getting merch, supporting and partying with our brothers in arms!
Promotion-wise we do quite a lot of social media work. We kinda naturally managed to split it between us and the label, so SELFMADEGOD does the „oldschool“ kind of promotion (magazines, sending the albums to different parts of the world, etc.) and we do the modern solutions. I see it starting to work, and it's quite a comfortable solution for both sides
On the one hand, a band just starting out today has plenty of ways to get their name out there, but on the other hand, there are a huge number of bands out there, and fans get lost in the crowd. A lot of people just download MP3s from the internet and, instead of going to a concert, prefer to spew venom on Facebook. How does modern technology influence you as GODSLUT? What do you think about downloading music, “Google metalheads,” streaming music, and so on?
We simply don't give a single fuck and do our work :)
I like to ask musicians what death metal means to them. How would they define it—is it more of a philosophy and lifestyle for them, or “just” a way to unwind? What does it mean to you? How do you perceive and experience it?
It may disappoint you, but we don't really have a deep and emotional answer to that question. We simply enjoy that style, it matches our groove and everything we want to deliver as a Godslut material.
Finally, a classic but important question. What does GODSLUT have planned for the coming months? Where can we see you in concert? If you’d like to say something to labels, promoters, or fans, here’s your chance…
Most importantly – releasing an album, and a day after that – playing a gig on RUF Guitars' 5th birthday party! After that probably some promo, and a tour later on! Here are the dates:
30.10 Skarżysko-Kamienna
31.10 Lublin
13.11 Wrocław
14.11 Katowice
20.11 Warszawa
21.11 Toruń
12.12 Tarnobrzeg
Warm invites, listen to the new material until you hate it, have a blast everybody!
Thank you so much for the interview. I wish your new album every success and hope your fan base grows as much as possible. I look forward to seeing you live somewhere, and I wish you all the best both musically and personally. I’m off to blast “The Art Of Deconstruction” again!
Huge thanks, enjoy, and hope to see you (and all the readers!) at one of our gigs somewhere!
Cheers!
